Artist's Statement

.
In my enamel work I most enjoy making cloisonné jewelry on fine silver or copper. These pieces are fired in an enameling kiln a number of times for just a few minutes after each color is added. The subjects are usually flowers, birds or animals and often contain an element of whimsy in the design as well as tiny details.

My constructed patchwork boxes take advantage of the wonderful selection of quilting fabrics available locally or wherever I travel. Sometimes I dye my own fabrics.

Many of the boxes have Seminole patchwork on the lids or small pieced, traditional or folk art designs. The box is finished with a cloisonné enamel latch that enhances the box or may give a clue about the lining which is often a surprise fabric. The boxes make wonderful gifts for men, women and children of all ages.

. Sometimes, I can be found in my studio during normal business hours. (414) 425-2465 .
